HI I believe this is about transit AS. If you are doing multihoming with 2-3 ISPs, you do not enable your AS to forward traffic from ISP1 to ISP2 or ISP3. This means you do not make your AS as transit AS. Doing this will enable for eg ISP1 to go to ISP2 using your AS, as that would be a shorter route. HOpe this clarifies
